First Successful EPS Field Trip

Redwoods&Rhododendrons

Field Trip Scheduled for JuneHasBeenCancelled

A dozen EPSers, with “Distancing Rules” in mind, collected separately at the designated time at Johnson Brothers Flower farm near Coburg to have fun releasing some pent up cabin fever.

This Field Trip, organized by Carla Aguilar, is the first to actually be successful given our constrained environment because of the national virus quarantine.

The only other photo field work to have a positive outcome that we know of is still on-going at Finley WR to keep watch on the baby coots at the Mitigation Pond on Bruce Rd., a Linn County road.

Other planned trips have been cancelled, as seen below, but many keep up hope that more planned trips (seen at right) can still have posi-tive results later in the year.
